HOLY CRAP!!! I said it could be mistaken for a P38AT ANY REAL RANGE :furious(grumbling, muttering to youself). they both have two engines yes, but at least the B25, B26, and A20G actually look like bombers to me, I guess it is the turrets (I'm not saying the Ju88 has none but that they are kinda hard to see), and to me it kinda looks like it's more fragile or slender then the U.S. bombers. Hey I'm just saying a P38  with a paint job the same color as a Ju88 would fool me untill I got close enough to see the shape of the plane.

In order to end the Hi-jack of "ju88 looking like p38" debate.

Has lots of defensive guns, but the placement blows.  be even easier to kill than an 88 would be from underneath.  the tail gun can't fire low enough & i bet that single rear-facing gun in the ventral gondola is a 7.92mm.  so bring it on HTC!

(in case any of you missed it, I am being sarcastic in the above.)

Still, if you can make out the fact that it has 2 engines, you'll surely be able to see whether it has 2 tails or not.

(the one with 2 tails would be the P-38 :aok)

Wow, it actually looks like a bomber instead of heavy attacker or kinda like a single tailed P38 with an enlarged head like the Ju88.

You honestly should be taken out behind the toolshed and beaten to an inch of your life for making that comment.

You both argue like husband and wife.

anyway, I'd like to see any new bombers.  I'm not saying that the fighters don't need work too but we are defiantly at a shortage of good buffs.

Overlord I agree with you about the buffs. However you should probably not make comments like that untill you have made AT LEAST 50 posts that are well thought out, not offensive, constructive, and approved of by respected members. just saying.
